TransportRequestHandler currently contains 2 messageReceived methods,
one which takes a Task, and one that does not. The first just delegates
to the second. This commit changes all existing implementors of
TransportRequestHandler to implement the version which takes Task, thus
allowing the class to be a functional interface, and eliminating the
need to throw exceptions when a task needs to be ensured.
With #30490 we have introduced a new way to provide request options
whenever sending a request using the high-level REST client. Before you
could provide headers as the last argument varargs of each API method,
now you can provide `RequestOptions` that in the future will allow to
provide more options which can be specified per request.
This commit deprecates all of the client methods that accept a `Header`
varargs argument in favour of new methods that accept `RequestOptions`
instead. For some API we don't even go through deprecation given that
they were not released since they were added, hence in that case we can
just move them to the new method.
In #29623 we added `Request` object flavored requests to the low level
REST client and in #30315 we deprecated the the old requests. This
changes many calls in the `qa` projects to use the new version.
* Decouple XContentBuilder from BytesReference
This commit removes all mentions of `BytesReference` from `XContentBuilder`.
This is needed so that we can completely decouple the XContent code and move it
into its own dependency.
While this change appears large, it is due to two main changes, moving
`.bytes()` and `.string()` out of XContentBuilder itself into static methods
`BytesReference.bytes` and `Strings.toString` respectively. The rest of the
change is code reacting to these changes (the majority of it in tests).

Today Cross Cluster Search requires at least one node in each remote cluster to be up once the cross cluster search is run. Otherwise the whole search request fails despite some of the data (either local and/or remote) is available. This happens when performing the _search/shards calls to find out which remote shards the query has to be executed on. This scenario is different from shard failures that may happen later on when the query is actually executed, in case e.g. remote shards are missing, which is not going to fail the whole request but rather yield partial results, and the _shards section in the response will indicate that.
This commit introduces a boolean setting per cluster called search.remote.$cluster_alias.skip_if_disconnected, set to false by default, which allows to skip certain clusters if they are down when trying to reach them through a cross cluster search requests. By default all clusters are mandatory.
Scroll requests support such setting too when they are first initiated (first search request with scroll parameter), but subsequent scroll rounds (_search/scroll endpoint) will fail if some of the remote clusters went down meanwhile.
The search API response contains now a new _clusters section, similar to the _shards section, that gets returned whenever one or more clusters were disconnected and got skipped:
"_clusters" : {
"total" : 3,
"successful" : 2,
"skipped" : 1
}
Such section won't be part of the response if no clusters have been skipped.
The per cluster skip_unavailable setting value has also been added to the output of the remote/info API.
